ChrisNZ Posted December 15, 2011 Share #1 Posted December 15, 2011 Does anyone know of anywhere I can buy a reproduction leather handle for a wooden 1917 ammo box, I've hunted online but either places are out of stock or they won't ship international, does anyone know of any online place I can order one from?

doyler Posted December 15, 2011 Share #3 Posted December 15, 2011 If you dont have luck with KABAR2s information try Prarie Flower Leather.They make liners for WW1era helmets.Possibley they could fabricate some handles for you.They are out of Nebraska. http://www.pflco.com/ RD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisNZ Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share #4 Posted December 15, 2011 Thanks guys, unfortunately 1919a4.com forums seemed to have IP blocked the whole of New Zealand, I've tried accessing them from several different computers at other place and asked friends to try and get on and we all get vBulletin MessageSorry.

ChrisNZ Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share #8 Posted December 16, 2011 Thanks Greaser but I wouldn't expect you to do that, I might see if I can get one made locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pflco Posted December 20, 2011 Share #9 Posted December 20, 2011 Thanks Greaser but I wouldn't expect you to do that, I might see if I can get one made locally. If you can't find them anywhere else, I can make them for you. Had to for my own ammo boxes! Steffan Baker Prairie Flower Leather Co. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
